 * Symbol voting keep.svg This article is a five-fold expansion and also qualifies as a newly promoted GA. It is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are sufficiently cited (in my opinion). The sources are mostly offline so I was unable to check for close paraphrasing. The article is neutral. For July 31st if possible. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:51, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
